Abstract:

The paper aims to analyse the degree of river naturality according to the river morphology and the flora at raparian regions on the Anseong River during four seasons. Number of flexion was one at upper and low regions. That of middle region was absent. Bed materials were boulders and gravel in upper region and sand, silt, and clay in middle and low regions. Material of river shore at low channel width was the state of nature without protecting materials at upper region, but that was concreted impervious. Those of middle and upper regions were many artificial levees. The flora on the Anseong River was a total of 61 taxa, including 25 families, 54 species, and 7 varieties. The oxygen demand parameters COD, and BOD were within unacceptable levels at middle and low regions. Many cement blocks were creating instead river grasslands by the Direct stream Rivers Project and wide road construction. This artificial action reduced the waters natural filtration action.
